I was just talking about her and her turtle necks.

Rest easy and well, legend.

 

[Drizzle]

That's quite a shock. She was outstanding in everything I've seen her in from The Godfather trilogy to the Father of the Bride movies. I haven't yet seen her Oscar winning performance in Annie Hall but now I think I should.

RIP Diane Keaton
